First Rule of Fight Pit

The party visits the museum, learning an elemental orb was stolen by a thief who left behind red hair and a joker card. Seeking gold and glory, Fari and Fenwick enter 'The Creaky Keg' tavern in the slums, uncovering a brutal underground fighting pit run by Boss Delore. They pay the 100 gold entry fee to face the reigning champion, a monstrous Dwarf/Drider hybrid. The Drider deals massive initial damage, dropping Fari down to 1 HP. Fari rallies and lands a critical Divine Smite, utterly obliterating the champion. They claim the Drider's Signet Ring, its Magical Ice Hammer, and the pit championship.
